Incredible experience visiting Pompeii, we had a decent amount of time to explore the ruins on our own as we didn't have the guided tour. The guide (Marcus) who took us from Rome to Pompeii and back was very friendly, talkative and knowledgable, on the journey to Pompeii telling us about the history of the area and places we were going past. At our brief stop off in Naples he came over to me and chatted about Vesuvius and the surrounding area pointing things out to me.

This Pompii & Mount Vesuvius tour started dot on time. All along our guide Laura was awsome. She was exprienced guide very friendly and professional. She took care of each passenger on board. The driver Dan was also lovely. The tour was organised well with frequent toilet breaks and covered all what was in the itinerary.

We booked Rome to Pompei and Vesuvio experience for the family of five. Everything went as scheduled. Our coordinator during the trip mentioned several interesting facts about Rome. In Pompei we had our own guide, same while climbing Vesuvio. BTW, our bus stopped by the shortest path to the top which was very convinient. I sincerely recommend this experience!

Our guide was great. He was young and excited and his English was very good. Manuelo (?) was ideal to represent your company to a foreigner. It was a very full itinerary and the included lunch was delicious and FILLING!

The Vesúvio tour was really good, and the guide was attentive. The Pompeii tour itself was good, but the guide was not a really good English speaker (we could understand the major part, but sometimes it was not possible to understand her). Eduardo - the general guide - was really sweet with us!

You can take 2 different routes for your day trip, each holding unique delights.
